This year INWED is “Transforming The Future” | Women's Engineering Society

Sunday 23 June will mark 2019’s International Women in Engineering Day (#INWED19), when we will be encouraging participants to show the world how they are ‘transforming the future’ in pursuit of more diversity in engineering, inform Women's Engineering Society.

This global awareness campaign, coordinated by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES), aims to increase the profile of women in engineering worldwide and focus attention on the amazing career opportunities available to girls in engineering and related industries.

In 2019, WES’ own centenary year, INWED will aim to inspire even greater participation across the globe, both online and through physical activities, by individuals, schools, colleges, groups and organisations.

The theme will be supported by the hashtags #INWED19 and #TransformTheFuture. 

Another important part of the INWED celebrations is the annual ‘Top 50 Women in Engineering’ (WE50) awards, made possible through a partnership between the Women’s Engineering Society and The Telegraph. The winners of these coveted places will be announced to coincide with INWED19 celebrations. This year’s focus of excellence will be revealed on 8 March 2019, International Women’s Day...
